It will actually go pretty fast with full voltage on it.   You do realize that there are TMCC versions, right?  Also, with DCS, if you are running with the variable channels on the TIU, you can control the voltage using the DCS remote.

I know there are command control ones but I found this one for $45 brand new so figured I would grab it even if I didn't run it much or at all. I know my TIU has the variable voltage ports but I'm in fixed using the App and Wifi. I do not have a remote. I have a conventional transformer and controller I can use but never planned on digging that out again. If it zips along too fast I have the means to run conventional if needed. Just thought it would be a fun addition. Wasn't sure if it would fry the motor with I put power to my track.

Well, the little motor in these won't take too much abuse, so I'd probably consider dropping the voltage to it sufficiently to keep it healthy.  I keep a spare  motor around for my small motorized units, they are a common failure point.
